MICROBE WARS

Description

A fascinating and sometimes very funny account of the world of microbes. This is the story of what they are and how humans have tried (sometimes successfully, sometimes less so) to defeat them.Another book perfect for reading together is Microbe Wars by Gill Arbuthnott and Marianna Madriz (Templar Books, £14.99). Exploring microbes – bacteria, viruses, protists and fungi – this is the story of how humans battle against microbes, but also how we utilise them for good. An important read for the current moment, this book shows that the unseen world around us is not always as terrifying might seem. ― The Scotsman Published On: 2021-10-11
